MAY 20.—Yesterday morning arrived in Caraccas his Excellency Gen. Paez, accompanied 'oy the members of the illustrious municipality, and a very numerous and ra spectable body of the inhabitant s , The air resounded with shouts—" Vlva la Rep:;6liaa—viva Bolivar--viva Paez." Immediately on the., arrival of his Excellency, the' following proclamation we js i ssue d : Inhabitants of Vell:ezuela!—The free voice of the • people has conferred, on me the charge of the supreme command of the 'civil and military administration. Un -:mindful of my p - ersonal situation, the state of the country alone demands my attention. Our enemies congratulate themselves cal this event, and presume us to be once ' more in thei r power. They deceive themselves, and will find us as r'eady to repel them as we have ever been.— Self-prese ovation is the supreme law; this it is that has dictated tco us the measures which we adopt, and which are reco riled in the municipal acts. The public will be inform , .1d of all through the medium of the press. Mean - while it is sufficient to know that the laws reign, and that all riarantees shall be respected,—in a word, every thing virhilA is not inconsistent with the step we have taken. she'll remain as heretofore. The people were oppressed by a bad Administration, - and sighed for the remedy of their grievances. This very cause has afforded us the opportunity, and we have pro fited by it, 'seeking the remedy in the Constitution itself. We are resolved to, accelerate the moment appointed for the grand 'ci - invention.which was to have taken place in 183 1. Tht Liberater and President shall be an arbitrator. and mediator, and he will n o t turn a deaf ear to th e i m -' portunAt;ies of his countrymen. Oiar peculiar situation calls on us to arm. Threatened' at 'one and the same time by our common enemy from of road, and by the machinations of self-interested persons, we should be imprudent in the extreme if we did not assume a becoming attitude. The power which you have conferred on me is not designed to : oppreirs, but to protect you and secure your liberty. I abet! always consult the opinions of sensible men, and exeeute their wise resolves. JOSE ANTONIO PAEZ. Head-quarttrs in Canteen May 19, 1826. (The sam e numb er o f the Colombiano, contains the acts of the municipality of Caraccas, dated IGth of May, in con seque'nce of the communication from General Paez, dated Valencia, the 12th. This account recognizes the authority Of Paez. It determines that a Commissioner shall be dis . patched to Bolivar, begging him to visit his native country, diet he may use his influence with the other departments, to convoke immediately the Grand Convention, which the Constitution fixes for 1831; that the mode of effecting this reform in brotherly love, and avoiding the horrors of civil war, may he taken into consideration by that assem bly; and that he may apply the great experience which he has acquired during the long period in which he has guided the destinies of a great portion of the American :world, in, communicating to us lessons of prudence and wisdom—and become our teacher in the establishments of our institutions. • The Act declares it necessary to invest General Paez with authority for the maintenance •of public - order and tranquillity; for raising armies for the • defence of the country, and for preserving regularity in the administration. This authority lie shall hold as long as circumstances may require, under the title of Civil and Military Chief of Venezuela.—These circumstances, it is hoped, will change on the ar rival of the Liberator or so soon as it ca n b e d one with security.

The even tenor .of our fundamental institutions is materially affected by this change, and the people a r e p re p are d to de mend reform, which, by reconciling their interests, may render their condition more solid and happy. The insidious character of General Santander has poi soned the very fountain -head of administration, and the legislative body blindly obeying his caprices, and con trouled at ,the same time, by some of its members, who seek to sacrifice the labours of true patriots to their blind resentment, , had, by its deliberations, given effect to some dark and maliciotis designs. The laws came to be considered in Venezuela, as nets to entangle honest men, and the dark policy of administration inspired general distrust of all that came from Bogota,—(The General then enters into a detail of his own conduct, shows that he has hitherto preserved the peace o f th of th e e department of V enezue l a, i n spite of the tire- vonsGovernment, and that if those have bitherte, not caused any explosion, it was owing to the mildness of his conduct towards some, and his energy to.

In con clusion, he says—Though all desire reform, they refer, the nature of it to your 11 Excellency, and desire that you should be the Arbitrator of their fate; all here consider you 'ltatheir Father, and do not doubt that an illustrious Son ntinent of Colombia, wholes covered the greater part of this 'co with his glory, will consent to be a Legislator for his immediate birth-place, after having given it inde pendence. Come, then, your Excellency, in compliance with the wishes of the people to perfect the wor k of your hands, and secure the stability of the Republic. god protect your Excellency many years. JOSE ANTONIO PAEZ. earaccas 24th Hay, 1826. We have received ilarbadoes Papers to the 22d May. The following extract announces some recent disturbances in t'he vicinity of Para (Brazil), and an application from the British residents at that place for protection from the squadron on this station :-- "By the arrival of the Ketch, Blackbird, from Para, we have received the unpleasant intelligence of that place being again in a state of anarchy, occasioned by a revolt at Camata ; when the insurgents, like a lawless banditti, had been guilty of rapine and bloodshed. We understand a gentleman of the name of Campbell has been commissioned to request the Naval Officer on this station to send a vessel of war thither, for the purpose of protecting the lives and property of the British subjects who have settled there." 13y the accounts from La Guayra, of the 3d of June, it appears that General Bermudez, the second in command, has declared that the proceedings of General Paez, in Venezuela, was considered by him in the light of a revolt, and consequently that the latter was liable for all serious consequences of such proceedings. The state of the Weather over the whole Continent of Europe has been most remarkable during the pre sent summer. An article from Hamburgh, dated the 7th inst. mentions,' that the fire in the woods in Sweden, which have been greatly promoted by an unexampled drought of six or seven weeks duration. has been lately checked by very great exertions. In two places the fire has destroyed the forests to the ex tent of nine miles. At the end of June the atmos phere at Stockholm was obscured by the smoke, and fears were entertained for the safety of the neighbour ing places. The accounts from Sweden of the effects of the drought on the corn and fruits are very melan choly ; those from Norway and Denmark are but little better. While the north of Europe is thus distressed for want of rain, it has been so abundant and conti nual in Hungary in the latter part of June, that the rivers have overflowed their banks, and the Danube has done considerable damage near Presburg. Much rain also fell at the same time in the mountains of Silesia ; and on the 26th the Oder had risen very much at Breslau, but it was beginning to fall again. THE FUNDS. CITY, Twelve o' Clock.

LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OP CHANCERY (Tess DKr.) 000DSON e. suasox. Mr. HORNE stated that the parties had been considering this case with respect to amending the bill as to the point the Court had suggested, but that they had found it im practicable to amend it in such a way in consequence of the great number of parties interested : this is important in this respect. By a deed of 1767, a Mr. Ellison was invested as a trustee of an estate, in trust for eight per sons. By devol u ti on t h at trust tad descended to the pre sent defendants, two ladies. The persons entitled to the equitable trust sold a parcel of the estate (sixteen acres), but the d e f en d ants refused to j o i n in the con veyance of it. A bill was filed against them to com pel them to convey. The case was originally heard before the present Master of the Rolls, who ordered them to convey, and to pay all the costs. The case was brought here by an appeal from that order; and the Lord Chancel lor has stated that he had no conception that he was to be so treated in this Court. If trustees chose, they had a right to say they would not part with a trust estate by parcels. The parties entitled to the estate could divest trustees of the whole of the estate, but only by taking away the whole; and could only do that by using the the very terms too which had been used in conveying the estate to the trustees. In the present case, the defendants, in their answer, intimated that they themselves were entitled to the estate, but did not state any ground whatever for entertaining any such notion; and his Lordship was perfectly satisfied that they had no more beneficial interest in them, than the most perfect stranger in London. It was extremely cruel towards them, for any person to buoy them up with the slightest idea that they had any title to the property what ever. Mr. Horne further begged leave to mention the case again on next Wednesday, by which time' he hoped to be able to satisfy the Court that the plaintiffs were en titled to have the estate conveyed. EItOWNE V. DE TASTET. Mr. Solicitor -General occupied a great part of the morn ing in making observations on this case. He appeared on the part of the defendant, Mr. De Tastet, and his ground of objection was, that when the case was referred to Mas ter Courtenay, to take an account of the personal property belonging to the late Mr. Mangiii, possessed by his sur viving partner, Mr. De Tastet, and the gains and profits made upon it; the Master had assumed the disputable point that Mr. Mangin was to be considered as a continu ing partner, and that upon that footing he had taken the account, by which Mr. De Tastet had been made a debtor to the deceased gentleman's estate, to the amount of 30,0004 Much of the profit s of Mr. De Tastet's house had arisen from personal labour, and not from the use of money at all, and therefore Mr. Mangin's estate could not have any right to claim a share in those profits. The Learned Gentleman concluded by hoping the Court would refer the case back to the Master to review his report. His LORDSHIP said, be would dispose of Craw:hay v. Collins on Saturday, and at the conclusion of that judg. ment state whether he should require the case of Browne v. De Tastet to be further spoken to or not. • VICE-CHANCELLOR'S COURT.—(Tms DAT.) ONSLOW V. ONSLOW. The personal representative of Lady Drake filed a bill against the trustees of the property of Sir Francis Drake, to compel them to account for three fourths of Sir Fran cis's personal property, to which, as the wife of a citizen, she was entitled according to the customs of London.— This, the trustees opposed on the grounds that Sir Francis Drake had made a . settlement of 15,0001. on Lady Drake in lieu of dower, and the one-third to which she would be entitled at common law, in case she should survive him. Sir Francis died in 1789 intestate, and Lady Drake received from the trustees 7,5001., being a moiety of what she was entitled to by the settlement. The trustees contended that this was a bar to her claims according to the customs of London. It having been argued in last term, the Vice-Chancellor directed that the opinion of the Lord Mayor and the Court of Aldermen should be taken respecting the customs of the City on this point. This having been done the Recorder returned a certi ficate, stating that there was nothing in the deed of settle ment which should preclude Lady Drake from that. share of Sir Francis's personal property, to which, as the wife of a citizen, she was entitled. Mr. Hart, on behalf of the Trustees, contended this day that the deed of settlement was a bar to all claims in support of this position. He cited Bott. V. Lee and Lewin Lewin, in Peer William, where a settlement before marriage had been decided by the Lord Mayor and the Court of Aldermen, to be a sufficient bar to the claims of the wife; according to the customs of London. The VICE-CHANCELLOR said, that according to the principles of common law, Lady Drake was by the settle ment excluded from a ll claims on real property, but it did not bar her from her share of the personal property. The only question was, whether, according to the customs of the city of London, she was excluded from claims on the personal property. It appeared by the certificate of the Lord Mayor and Aldermen, that she was not. His Honour decreed that three-fourths of the money that arose from the sale of the personal property of Sir Francis Drake, and also 7,5001. the other moiety of the settle ment to be given to the plaintiff. POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. WINDSOR, JULY 12.—This afternoon abciut two o'clock, the KING left his Royal Lodge in Windsor Park, attended by his suite in two carriages and four, With a number of outriders, and escorted by a detach ment of the R o y a l H orse uards. The Lord Steward of the Household rode in the first carriage with the KING.—The Lord in Waiting and Sir Andrew Bar nard, Groom in Waiting, followed in the second car riage. The Royal cavalcade proceeded through the Long Walk and the town of Windsor, where great numbers were assembled, and through the Gate by St. George's Chapel to a private entrance to the Castle, the carriages not being able to approach to the Grand entrance, in consequence of the preparations making there for erecting a large Portico. His MAJESTY arrived about half-past two o'clock, and immediately proceeded to hold a Privy Council, which was attended by— The First Lord of the Treasury, the Lord Privy Seal, the Secretary of State for the Colonial Depart ment, the President of the Board of Controul, the Treasurer of the Household, the Judge Advocate. His MAJESTY gave audiences to the Earl of Liverpool, Earl Bathurst, and Mr. Wynn. Earl Bathurst officiated in the absence of the Earl of Harrowby, as Lord President of the Council. Mr. Buller attended as Clerk of the Council. The Council broke up about half-past three o'clock. The Earl of Liverpool arrived at Windsor from Coombe Wood. Mr. Wynn came from the seat of Lord Grenville at Dropmore. After the breaking up of the C o u nc il, th e Mi n i sters , &c. who had attended it partook of the dejeune which had been prepared and sent from the Royal Lodge. We are happy to say, the Duke of York continued to go on well yesterday.—Sir Herbert Taylor did not transact military business with his Royal Highness, on account of Sir Herbert having appointed to hold a Levee at the Horse Guards.—lt is expected his Royal Highness will shortly leave Mr. Greenwood's Villa, at Brompton, and proceed on a visit to the Duke of Rutland at Belvoir We learn that the profitable office of King's Printer in Scotland has been conferred on Sir Walter Scott. Of the great increase of Parliamentary business in the House of Commons, an idea may be formed from the evidence of Mr. Mitchell, of the Vote Office. In his examination before the Select Committee on Com mittee Rooms an& printed Papers, he states that 4 , there has been such an increase in the printed votes and proceedings of the House of Commons as to render of late years a tenfold greater space necessary than was required in the years past ; and that, from the greater anxiety with respect to Parliamentary busi ness, the demand and press upon th e o ffi ce , m t h e discharge of its duties, is a hundred-fold greater than formerly." A gentleman who came passenger in the latest ar rival from the United States, states that he was in Peru on the 20th of March. Bolivar was expected to leave Lima for the Upper Country after the opening of the Congress. We apprehend, however, that if this had been his intention, the urgent request from Co lombia for ,his presence must have changed it. At Panama, all the Deputies from the new States had ar rived, with the exception of the Mexican. The busi ness of the Congress was expected immediately to commence.--. Times. APPLEBY, JUNE 27.—1 t is a curious fact, that at this busy time, when wine is carried about in pails, and when gin is flowing in rivers, in the county of Westmorland, an elector absolutely died of drinking water. I came to the knowledge of this most extraor dinary fact in the history of elections, in consequence of a report having-reached me that a bl ue voter h a d died of his wounds he had received in the scuffle of Saturday last. I found upon inquiry, that a blue voter, upwards of 70 years old, had died ; but that the cause of his death had been entirely misrepresented. He had walked from his home into Appleby, a dis tance of 30 • miles, for the purpose of giving Mr. Brougham a plumper, and had taken a glass of cold water to relieve his thirst, whilst he was m a state of great fever and exhaustion. The consequence was, that the sudden cold had struck to his heart, and that the poor man had shortly afterwards died. The only epicedurn which I have heard bestowed upon his memory was very short, but at the, mine time very pithy. It was uttered by one of the crowd—" the fellow, why did he not poll before he died ?" MAD WOLVES. By accounts from Pontarlier , of the 4th July, it appears Junesa n t nu h b a d j t teh t etel h ha appearancee eotefmoamicisememnhte ill.alendfetwhoi noefotyfiefrvmehsaa ad awolvesdt.

A man named Passard was the first person attacked, andapftz not, however,avigorousres untilistance after sue he de had d il making received many wounds. The second person attacked was a man named Prince. He was torn in a dreadful manner, and would have been completely devoured by the furious animal had he not been frightened away by the sud den appearance of light, and the cries of a person who came up unexpectedly at the time. Prince died mad, af ter having lingered for some days. The third was named Dance. He was attacked near a house, • and defended himself with great obstinacy. He kept the wolf under him for about ten minutes, calling • out for help. The animal fled just as the owner of the h ouse was com i ng forward with a light. Dance died, after 25 days' suf. fering. The wolf immediately after this bit seven or eight cows, some of which died mad. Next morning, the same animal bit a child in the village of Bonnevaux, but was at length killed by a man named Bolard, while in the act of springing on him. One of Prince's ear-rings was found in his stomach. On the 10th of June another wolf attacked a youth, about fifteen, who was in a forest with his father. The latter ran to the assistance of the son, and succeeded in killing the animal with a knife which he drew from his pocket during the contest. In a few days after the father died mad. In the same canton an infant was forced out of the arms of its brother while standing at their own door. The wolf was pursued. The infant was found dead, part of its body having been devoured. In conse. pence of these accidents, it was determined that a gene ral attack should be made on these animals in all the forests of the arrondissement of Pontarlier.

William Williams Parkins, the young man who was re manded at the Mansion-house, for forgery upon Masterman's and Co. was brought up here yesterday to undergo a final exa mination. A number of witnesses were examined, who fully proved the forgery, and the tracing of the letter (ad ' dressed as requested), to the hands of the prisoner. On account of the absence of some of the clerks in our Post office, to prove the deli Very of the letter to our Post ' master, Mr. Foster, the stipendiary Magistrate, ordered ' the matter to stand over until this day. Some time before the opening of the Court this morn ing, a great crowd had assembled at the gates of the ' Court-house, such an interest had th e case exc i ted h ere, on account f the respectability of the individual who was implicated in so serious an affair. After some preliminary "business of the Court had been gone through, the pri soner was ordered to the bar, when the evidence wanting yesterday was adduced, and the worthy Magistrate or dered the prisoner to be committed to Lancaster, to take his trial at the approaching Assizes. The case . against him, as it appeared in evidence, was—that, some time last month, Masterman's received a letter, inclosing an order upon them to pay to a Mr. Francis Eversham the sum of 175/., which was to be placed to the account of John Wakefield and Sons, whose name or firm was signed at the bottom, as if coming in due course from them. Master man's detected the forgery, the hand-writing differing very much from that of the John Wakefield and Sons, their correspondents at Kendal, who are also bankers. I should have stated, that the letter inclosing the order desired them (Masterman) to transmit the money per post, di rected for Mr. Francis Eversham, Hen and Chickens, Bir mingham. On discovering the forgery, Masterman's itn mediately applied to M r . G a t es , t h e S o li c i tor o f t h e Bankers' Association, who wrote a letter to the Post master at Birmingham ; and Gardner, a Bow-street Officer, was also dispatched to Birmingha m,: to apprehend any person applying for a letter directed to Mr. F. Ever sham. Before, however, the arrival of the Officer at Bir mingham, Mr. Hermsley, the Post-master at Birmingham, had received a letter,_ as if from F. Eversham, desiring him to forward t o th e Post-office, Manchester, any letters that might come there directed F. Evershana. The Post master sent the letter received from London to Man chester ; and the Officer also came down to MancheAter, in the Post-office of which town he waited from the Sun day to the Wednesday following, in readiness to appre hend the person who might call for the letter. On Wed nesday evening, a few minutes before ten o'clock, a person applied at the window for a letter for Francis Eversham. Ile was taken into custody ; and, although Gardner, the Officer, stood at his elbow when the letter was given him, and saw him put it into his pocket, the prisoner contrived, by some unaccountable means, to rid himself of it; so that, up to this time, no trace has been found by which the letter has been recovered. It is supposed he must have dropped it on his way to the Police-office (so much for the alertness of aBo w-s tree t Officer), though no one, that it is known, ever found it. There is no very strong evi dence that impeaches the prisoner as being the person who committed the forgery ; not even a single witness was brought forward who could speak to the hand-writing of either the order upon the bankers, or the different letters signed F. Eversham. As the matter is one of vital im portance, any remarks upon it would at present be, to say the least, very ill timed. The Court was crowded by respectable persons, who seemed to regard the prisoner with pity; he looks about 25 years of age, and of a genteel appearance; his behaviour was not sufficiently concerned for one who stood in so cri tical a situation, and surrounded by faces with which he was so familiar. Mr. Harmer and Mr. Gates, Solicitors from London, conducted the case for the prosecution. TUESDAY EVENING. I am extremely sorry that I can give you no favourable account of trade in this town and its neighbourhood. Tuesday (which, when we had a trade, was our chief market day), is little, if at all, different from others, except by the more than usual number of gloomy countenances that crowd on our Exchange. There has, to-day, been no better prospect ; every thing which bespeaks a thriving community has fled us ; the most sanguine of our trades men begin to think trade has entirely forsaken us; the starving state of our operatives makes us regard the ap proach of winter with fearful apprehensions. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. NEWMARKET JULY MEETING. NIMMAILICZT, TUESDAY NIQRT. The races today have gone off much better than was expected, and, contrary to the general opinion, all four appointed were ran. On the conclusion of the running, the company assembled on the exercise ground, according to custom, when a little Wainer: was done on the St. Leger Stakes, at odds, which varied but in very trifling degree from our last statement ; the evening did not produce any alteration--we must therefore refer to our Monday:, betting. The Duke of Grafton has [sold his filly, Lilian, to Mr. Ore vale, who has, this evening, matched her for 50 save. against Lord Verulam's Upas, to run the T. Y.
